Good Day to You

[M A X]

Max led his stallion into the wash area and hooked him up to a set of cross-ties and slipped him a treat. Not only did he need to soak the stallions ankle but the horse needed a serious bath. Alright buddy, lets get this started. Max said softly patting Treason on the neck as he reached down and grabbed the hose and stepped back, turning it on and starting the process of washing the sixteen hand equine.

He was using the outside wash rack and he was glad of it, having decided to wear a pair of old jeans, a t-shirt, and work boots since he couldn't ride his horse at the moment. He knew he'd get just as wet as the stallion would, he always did, since Treason didn't like to leave anyone out of the fun.

Knock it off. He said with a warning tone as Trea started pawing at the bottom of the wash stall, and Max reached forwards and tapped the stallions leg lightly with his hand, the horse lowering his hoof back down and settling in to take a nap while Max worked.

Aly was going through her morning check. Cecking all the hot walkers to make sure they were fuctioning rightly. Checking the arena's to make sure that they had been raked earlier that morning. She had checked the round pen and made sure that was raked along with the pastures to make sure there was nothing dangerous in there for the horses being let out. She went around adn checked everything making sure the place was all neat and clean. They were suppose to be getting some enw horses in that day so she wanted the place to sparkle. Now, she just had to check the washracks.

Walking into the barn, she clean up the first wash rack cleaning off the rubber mat and making sure the floor was clean alnog with the soap stuff that is wa sin order and not dripping. Fixing the hose, she rerapped it making it looked perfect. After that, she looked over her work making sure it was clean and sparkling. Also very neat. Once she was completed with that, she went outside to check the outside wash rack.

Walking outside of the barn and to the right she went over to the outside wash racks. Someting was different though. There wa snoise. Looking up, she saw a orse getting a bath. Aly smiled. It was 7 in the morning, around 80 degrees and there was already a horse getting a bath. Wow. Walking over to te horse, she cleared her throut to get the humans atttention. Noticing it was a guy, Aly was pretty sure it was Max. He was the new assistant trainer there. Aly held her hand out to the stallion smiling as he smelt it. Pulling out an apple slice, she gave it to the horse and then looked to wards to human waiting for an answer.

Morning. I'm going to assume you're my boss. Max said and shut off the hose. Shaking himself like a dog, he was already just as wet as the horse. Wonderful first impression. He thought and flashed her a quick boyish smile. Excuse my wet-ness. Decided to get a head start on my list of things to do for today, and get him out before the day really heated up. He said and held out a hand to her. Max Jacobs.

Ok so his real name was Maxwell but it was so dorky. He always wondered if his parents were on crack when they named him that, but then again he had to give them props, it did sound professional, depending on what you were talking about.

Treason. Knock it off. He said again glancing at the stallion as he started to paw at the ground once more. Excuse him, he's annoyed because he got hurt. He said nodding towards the horse.

Treason snorted softly and once more lowered his hoof down, stretching his muzzle out towards Alyce and nickering, a complete baby around people. He'd been babied by his previous owners and had never had a human abuse him in any way so he had no fear, and no reason to fear people.

"I am. Aly Carer." Aly said watching Max shut the horse off. we he shook himself, Aly gave a little giggle. Okay, tat was funny. Maybe unprofessional but still, funny! She grinned at his boyish smile and giggled a bit more. " Yup. I have to do a morning check ever day at 7. Not that fun." Aly giggled a bit more watched Max and then the horse then back to Max. Max was kind of cute. That was all. well, maybe if he took is shirt off he'd be ott. Aly always checked guys out now that she was single. Aly shook is wet hand and laughed. " Nice to meet you finally." she gave a flashy white grin up at Max.

Max, Wasn't it Maxwell. Aly kept tinking it was Maxwell. Maybe is was. She couldn't remember, but if it was. That would be a weird name to have. Well, she meant different. Her's was Alyce(A-Lease). She never liked hers and that was why she always had people call ehr Aly instead. Alyce was to dorky. Not dorky but very weird sounded.

Aly smiled at Tre and rubbed the stud's muzzle. " oh, what happened?" She asked curious about why the stud was hurt. He was a nice sized orse. 16 hands she guessed. Real pretty colored too. Nice looking. If you knew what a stallion acted like, you would never guessed he was a stallion. he was sweet and gentle, caring infact. A friendly giant/. That's what Aly called them. "I don't have any more treats." Aly said to the stag smiling as she let him lick her hand to gather up salt from her palm.

I was out riding him and he took a miss step or something. Hurt his ankle so we've got to take it easy for the next few days. He said and grabbed a sweat scraper. Starting to get the water off of the stallion and running his hand though his dirty blond hair making it stick straight up. He'd been considering removing his shirt before his boss showed up. He was already unprofessional enough, no reason to make her wonder if she'd been wise to hire him. No matter how famous and how amazing his parents were it would do him no good all the way out here.

So anything I can do after I get done with Treason's bath? He asked as he flicked the last bit of water from the stallions hindquarters and moved to start on the other side. Treason sidestepped as Max went around his side, pulling on the cross-ties gently and eying the sweat scraper though he'd seen them a million times.

Max choose to ignore the stallions miniature outburst except for rolling his eyes. Trea. If you don't stop acting crazy and start acting like yourself... I don't know what I'll do but I'll figure something out. He said and smiled slightly, his icy blue eyes lighting up with the smile.

[Alyce Carr]

"Oh yeah. I've had that happen before. To bad. Hope he gets better." Aly smiled at Max then looked to Tre. Aly watched how he scraped thw waster off the stag's back and coat. Aly smiled watching ow the guy calmed his horse and finishedup his job. "You have a nice stud here." Aly said trying to get a conversation started. Reaching up, Aly scratched the stud's neck with her nails and giggling at the stud's reaction. "You got any more horses?" Aly said wondering what other tastes this guy had on horses. He sure did a good job picking out this buddy.

" Well, I'm going to head down to the sales place. if you want to come you can. I want to go check out some horses for sale. " Aly needed more orses at ehr place. "Or you could stay here and work with our two fillies, Mia and Lacey. " Aly smiled at Max waiting for any reaction to what she suggested about what to do after Tre's bath was over. Aly watched the stud step over and then eye the scraper as if he didn't know what it was. Walking to the stud, Aly grabbed his halter and pulled his head to the front so he wouldn't eye the object. "Nock it off." Aly said with a firm voice. She knew the stud was being stupid, she decided to help Max out a bit.

He'll be fine in a few days, he's a tough boy. My last horse passed away a few years before I bought Treason here. She was my mothers old show horse, Imported Perfection. She was really old though so I knew it was coming, I just couldn't find another horse I liked until this guy. He said putting the sweat scraper away and grabbing a few towels and starting to rub the stallion down before he put him away.

As he finished with that part of the job he decided to just bite the bullet and pulled his shirt off, running a towel over his skin to dry it and then rubbing it though his hair quickly and tossed it into the pile with the towels he'd used on Treason.

I'll come down with you to the sales area, I'd like to take a look around anyways. He said as he draped a sweat sheet over Treason in hopes that the horse wouldn't get extremely dirty until after he dried. Snapping his lead back onto him and unclipping the cross-ties. So long as you can wait for me to change into some dry cloths of course. He said flashing Aly another boyish smile as he led Treason out of the wash stall and back towards his own stall in the barn.

[Alyce Carr]

Okay, That's good. he sure is a looker though. Have you breed him at all?"

[/b] Aly was just wondering. She didn't have any mares. Well, she did. Emmy but Emmy wasn't the best horse to breed to. She kind of had a snobby attitude and was to childish to breed. Plus, her bloodlines weren't very well done. her dad was great but er mother was, a piece of crap. It was true. Aly held ahold of Tre's halter as his owner dried him off with a few towels. Aly let go the second Max finished cleaning off his horse.

Aly watched as Max grabbed his shirt and pulled it off. Wow. Nice six pack. Aly was shocked. It was real nice. Looking at his face then is abs then back to his face, she just grinned. he was hott! That was for sure. Real hot. So right now, Aly thought he was cute and hot. She just didn't think he was interested in her nor that she didn't know him very. Well, I mean they didn't know each other and he probablly didn't like her anyways. Oh well. Aly still maybe would try. even though she was his boss adn he worked for her. Weird. He probablly already had a girlfriend.

"Okay, that'll be cool. I really need some more horses around. I jsut got 4 of my own so yeah. Three aren't ridable. " Aly grimaced at max before fiddlnig with ehr fingers. Aly got out of the way as Max led Tre out of the rakc adn to the boarders barn. "I'll wait for you. " Aly said smiling as she followed a few feet away from the stag's ind end and off to the stud's right side. Aly knew better not to go near a horses hind end when they hardly knew you and expecially if they didn't know you were there. You could get seriously hurt. Big time.[/size][/center]

No I haven't bred him yet. I'm hoping to show him another year or two before I get into that, get his rep up a little better even though he's got pretty nice lines and he's awesome in the show ring. He said rubbing Treason's neck gently. Leading him away.

Cool. I'll be back in a few minutes boss. He called back over his shoulder, keeping a firm hold on Treason. He'd dated some in high school but learned girls didn't like being stood up for horses, even the girls who had horses. Sometimes he just got to serious about his dreams for riding in the Olympics, a dream his mother had lost after a bad fall a year before the Olympics started.

He led Treason into his stall and slid off the stallions halter grabbing his bag which he'd left just outside of the stall while he gave the horse a bath, glad he'd though to bring a change of cloths. He headed off after making sure the stallions stall was latched and changed quickly. Tossing his bag into his tack trunk and walking back towards where Aly waited.

Ready? He asked his hands half way into his pockets, the shirt clinging to his shoulders and torso slightly when he moved, just barely showing off his well sculpted muscles.

[Alyce Carr]

Aly stopped outside the barn and took a seat on the bench nearby. She sat down and waited, her legs cross and her fingers fidling with eachother. As it only took a few minutes before Max was done. Standing up when he walked out, Aly gave a flashy grin. "Ready as always." Aly brushed her hair out of her eyes and pulled her hair into a ponytail beind ehr head. "That's better." She said giggling a bit to herself before pulling out ehr truck keys and walking behind the boarders barn.

Aly halted at a black truck and white trailer that was attached. The trailer was able to hold three horses. It was her smallest trailer. Walking around to the drivers side of the black ford truck, Aly unlocked the doors, pulled open the door, stepped up and took a seat in the truck. Closing the door behind her, she motioned for Max to get in before placing the key into the ignition hold and starting up the truck. The truck rumbled a bit then finally started. Aly put it into gear and the two were off to the sales...
